Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed Boyd Kirkland's "SubZero" stands as not only one of the best animated Batman films of all time, but one of the best Batman films, period. Apr 21, 2018 Full Review Matthew Turner VODzilla.co Prepare for thrills and chills as the dynamic duo take on Mr Freeze (and his trained polar bears) in this superbly animated Batman adventure. Rated: 8.2/10 Sep 10, 2017 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media Animated '90s Batman tale has cartoon violence, peril. Rated: 3/5 Jun 20, 2017 Full Review TV Guide More enjoyable -- and far less campy -- than Joel Schumacher's first two live-action Batman movies.

Jay H It's a Batman movie, but Batman is hardly in it. Bummer. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/21/24 Full Review Elvis D Regresando a la época donde la versión de Tim Burton y la serie animada que inspiro fueron todo un furor en los años 90, esta película sin duda pareció algo asombroso en su momento. Ahora que pasaron los años, ya es vista como lo que realmente es y se trata de algo que solo se vuelve a ver por pura nostalgia. Es bastante apreciable por su animación y diseño de personajes, dándole ese tono neo-noir que tiene la serie animada. Se usaron incluso elementos hechos con animación computarizada para que fuera algo más acorde a una película, pero la película realmente se siente más bien como un episodio extendido de la serie. Eso se nota por lo mucho que se centra en Dr. Freeze y en el secuestro de Bárbara Gordon, dejando a Batman y Robín para el tercer acto. No es un guion muy bien trabajado y no hay muchos elementos que vuelvan esta película algo más allá de lo que es. De todos modos, Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero es una buena película bastante corta que sirve como un pequeño recuerdo de la relevancia que tuvo Batman en la animación noventera. Mi calificación para esta película es un 8/10. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/23 Full Review Farah R The story is weaker than Mask of the Phantasm, and the CG graphics combined with traditional animation could have come through better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/21/23 Full Review Andrius Y Batman bajo cero no solo es una bella cinta animada con una historia profunda ,un antagonista magnifico bien adaptado ,trama entretenida ,guion magnifico y una animación clasicamente hermosa. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/12/23 Full Review Audience Member 25 years old and still one of the finer direct-to-video Batman movies It's only 1 hour but manages to accomplish so much The main villain here is Victor Frieze a renowned scientist who had a beautiful wife Nora But she developed a deadly disease so Victor was forced to cryogenically suspend her until he can find a suitable cure Along the way he suffered an accident and became one with sub freezing temperatures and resided to the North Pole A team of explorers caused his cave to collapse and worsened his wife's condition, now Victor has to find a suitable organ donor to save her life He ends up kidnapping Barbara Gordon, Commissioner Gordon's daughter Now it's up to Batman and Robin to save her This ends up being another worthy animated Batman movie; terrific animation, captures the spirit of the show, and makes great use of one of the Caped Crusader's most popular rogues gallery You do end up sympathizing with Freeze because of his desperate attempts to save his beloved It's enjoyable and generally kid friendly even if it's less than emotionally impacting than 'Mask of the Phantasm' Plus this easily moves past the Shulmacher movies that didn't satisfy everyone but fans of the show and the characters will be very pleased Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/18/23 Full Review Carl J I was expecting better !! Let me just start by saying, I dislike Robin. I also dislike Batgirl. Now, I missed this movie closer to it's release. And just found out about it recently! And the movie's title, "Batman & Mr. Freeze: Subzero". I was expecting Batman (or bruce) to have LOTS of screentime. Sadly, Robin and Batgirl are the leads of this movie. Victor Fries has a major part, which is great. One of the most powerful villains. He's still got a GREAT presence...and was a joy to see after Arnie's horrible appearance as the fishbowl man. Only Gripe with Fries's character... i thought got stripped of his emotions after his "accident". But cracked a smile in one scene, and even cried in another! The animation was okay, used a lot of the 3d stuff which i don't like too much. Any episode of the series seemed to have better animation actually. The story was slow. It had a REALLY long character introduction scene. Not a single Batterang was thrown either! And batman/bruce was only in it for like 15 mins total i'd bet. Again, i have never liked robin or batgirl. These are Batman's weakest points to me, he has to help them, or they write ways for them to help batman. Plus they supply an easy way to have batman explain to the audience "what he's thinking". It's worth seeing once if you're a fan...or even a casual fan of the series. But, i'd still try to find an "regular" episode of batman vs. freeze. even at 22 mins and episode, it seems to have more impact. I don't think i need to see it again. Now i'll go watch phantasm again :) Toom Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
